Exhibit 2 Acknowledgement of Paternity.pdf

This is an Exhibit file supporting the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services' Request for Proposal Number 120277 O3 REBID for a cloud-based Vital Records Management System. The solicitation was posted on October 31, 2025, with proposals due on November 21, 2025, at 2:00 pm CST. The system must support vital records management across multiple event types including births, deaths, marriages, dissolutions, fetal deaths, and induced terminations of pregnancy, with capacity for up to 5,000 users and 1,000 concurrent users. The project requires migration of approximately 10,000,000 existing records and integration with state and federal systems including STEVE, Social Security Administration, and Electronic Verification of Vital Events (EVVE). The contract term is five years with an option to renew for an additional five years, with a targeted go-live date within 15 months of the project kick-off meeting.

The evaluation will be conducted across four key areas: Corporate Overview (20 points), Functional Specification (30 points), Technical Specification (30 points), and Cost Sheet (20 points), with potential additional points for vendor demonstrations. The system must comply with federal and state regulations including HIPAA, Section 508, and NIST guidelines, and be hosted in a cloud environment located within the United States with 99.9% uptime availability. The pricing structure includes provisions for project implementation, support, maintenance, and operations across multiple contract phases, with specific hourly rates required for roles such as Software Engineers, IT Business Analysts, and Project Managers. The current system is hybrid infrastructure requiring complete modernization with no incumbent vendor continuing the project. The exact budget is not disclosed in the solicitation materials.
